Patient, Results-Oriented, and Dedicated!

I use effective practices, strategies, and resources to inspire and enrich each student's learning. Direct instruction, workbooks, visual aids, computers, math manipulative, hands-on activities, mini-labs, student-centered discussions, one-on-one tutoring and small-group instruction are used to honor various learning styles, students' needs and goals, as well as to ensure they are active learners. Students participate in small-group instruction, hands-on activities, mini-labs; may use computers for further enrichment and technology-integration; analyze words and stories; make real-life applications to concepts being presented; and customize their own learning environment through student-centered and teacher-led discussions and enrichment activities while receiving caring and effective support and guidance from me!
As a person who works with various groups of people, I continuou ... read more

My one to one teaching style is tailored to adapt to the students learning style. However, my experience shows that keeping the student active during the learning process promotes a better learning. I use Microsoft Excel during my lessons. I create formulas, graphs, etc. and the Excel spreadsheet and ask the student to enter the data so that he/she can see how things change with different entries. This interactive process increased the student interest, kept them focused and helped them to hold the knowledge in many instances.
Most of my teaching experience is from one to one tutoring. I have tutored over 20 students and always received compliments regarding my reliability, punctuality, style and patience. I have tutored for students with ages raging from 14 to 25 years old and included algebra, geometry, calculus, physics, etc. I worked as an 8th grade math teacher for a Catho ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I began tutoring in high school, mostly focusing in math subjects including algebra, geometry and calculus. I continued tutoring my peers while at the University of Oxford in England, and at Georgetown University as a post-graduate. I excelled in my science programs at both universities, allowing me to teach others. Most of my college tutoring or peer assistance focused in chemistry, biology, and physiology or other natural sciences. I gained experience with lesson planning and teaching younger students as a Sunday School teacher for preschool to middle school classes over three years. I have extensive writing experience from high school as editor-in-chief of our school publication, and throughout college in essays, dissertations and other reports. I have experience with all different kinds of testing environments and styles between English and American universities, and can help s ... read more

I believe all students, regardless of their background or level should be taught critical thinking skills. In this way, these students will be able to teach themselves and succeed on their own merit in the future. I strive to maintain a positive and cooporative environment when tutoring. I would be happy to provide a full resume and list of references. I am nationally certified for undergraduate student teaching and tutoring. This certification required courses in special needs and social justice. I have previously tutored and taught chemistry to several special needs students and find it to be very fulfilling. I can work with students one-on-one or in small groups.
I have bachelor's degrees in both chemistry and biochemistry and have a taken numerous other math, science, and English courses. I have received high scores on ACT, SAT, GRE, and MCAT standardized tests, and ... read more

I am a graduate from the University of Maryland, Baltimore County. I have recently graduated from this institution with a Bachelors in Science and a Masters in Science degree in the field of biology. I have had experience tutoring at the Biology department as well as having had experience tutoring my younger siblings for the past 4 years. I have acquired an MCAT score of 31.
I feel that the best way to inculcate teaching habits to kids and students is to show that time management is key in establishing good studying ethics. The more time you put into something, the easier it is to understand it.

I have always loved teaching. Since I was a young girl in high school my dream was to become a teacher. After completing my Bachelors in Biology I decided to further my education by doing a doctorate. this has allowed me to acquire writting and verbal skills. Presenting research data to audiences of various backgrounds has allowed me to be quite comfortable teaching or exposing. Also, during my graduate work I spent much time willingly tutoring college freshmen in subjects like general biology, cell biology, anatomy and physiology. I have worked with students helping them prepare for the MCATs and also with students looking to apply for graduate school
To be an effective instructor, it is necessary to have a perfect environment; one that allows for interaction and collaboration between students and their instructor. Hence I believe that teaching should be comprised of two compleme ... read more

Throughout many years of tutoring my peers and underclassmen, I have obtained several techniques to help students study effectively. Depend on each individual student and their study habit; I can adjust a specific agenda and curriculum to help strengthen their weakness and excel their strength. I am very patient and fun to be around. For me learning is a combination of fun and hard work. I tend to make the material easier to understand and to captivate their interest in the subject.
I’ve graduated with a Bachelor of Science in Biology in 2009. My Biology coursework has centered on theory, problem solving and critical thinking. I have taken multiple Biology, Chemistry, Physic, Math and Psychology classes which have enabled me to improve my knowledge and understanding of the subject. I have also taken various computer skills, writing, and test taking classes that can prepare s ... read more
